Lookout  Mountain  o’er  us  guarding, 
Ceaseless  watch  doth  keep ; 

In  the  valley  stands  our  college, 
Where  the  shadows  sleep. 

Chorus — 

Chattanooga,  Chattanooga, 

Loud  the  anthem  swell, 

Sing,  oh  sing  of  Alma  Mater, 

All  her  praises  tell. 

As  in  days  of  blood  and  battle, 

On  the  mountain  height, 

Soldiers  fought,  so  in  our  halls,  we 
Stand  for  truth  and  right. 

Chorus — 

Men  and  maidens  bear  our  standard, 
“Blue  and  Gold,”  on  high, 

Forward,  upward,  ever  onward, 

Forth  to  Victory! 

Chorus — 

God,  the  Lord  of  every  nation, 

Help  of  truth  and  right, 

Guard  and  bless  and  keep  our  college 
Ever  in  His  sight.

HE  City  of  Chattanooga  is  an  ideal 
spot  for  a university.  Situated 
in  the  very  center  of  one  of  the 
greatest  battlefields  of  the  Civil 
War,  in  the  midst  of  the  most  beautiful 
natural  surroundings,  with  a high  class  of 
citizenship,  and  a healthful  and  salubri- 
ous climate,  it  is,  in  many  respects,  unex- 
celled as  a college  town.  The  University 
grounds  consist  of  about  thirteen  acres,  in 
one  of  the  finest  residence  portions  of  the 
city,  so  elevated  as  to  command  an  unob- 
structed view  of  Lookout  Mountain,  Mis- 
sionary Ridge,  and  Walden’s  Ridge,  with 
glimpses  of  the  Tennessee  River  as  it 
winds  its  way  through  the  mountain  ridges 
and  plateaus. 


Chattanooga  from  Lookout  Mountain— The  Moccasin  Bend 


Here  were  fought : The  battle  of  Lookout  Mountain 
— the  “Battle  Above  the  Clouds,”  the  battle  of  Mission- 
ary Ridge,  and  the  battle  of  Chickamauga ; and  here 
occurred  the  siege  of  Chattanooga.  The  Federal  and 
State  governments  have  recognized  the  historical  import  - 
ance  of  these  points,  and  have  spent  millions  of  dollars 
in  the  creation  of  parks,  the  building  of  roads,  and  the 
erection  of  monuments.  No  person  can 
view  these  scenes  and  contemplate  the 
events  of  the  past,  which  they  commemorate,  without 
becoming  a broader  and  more  patriotic  citizen  — an 
inportant  factor  in  a well-rounded  education. 

Opportunity  is  afforded  for  many  interesting  trips  to 
these  places  of  historic  interest,  and  to  the  many  beauti- 
ful spots  around  the  city,  such  as  Lookout  Mountain,

Chattanooga  is  a city  of  90,000  and  is 
centrally  located  with  regard  to  Atlanta, 
Birmingham,  Nashville,  St.  Louis,  Louis- 
ville, Cincinnati,  etc.  It  is,  in  fact,  one 


of  the  great  railroad  centers  of  the  South, 
having  nine  trunk  lines  o f railway. 
Twenty -five  million  dollars  are  invested 
in  manufacturing  enterprises,  employ- 
ing twenty -two  thousand  men.  Chatta-

always  ready  to  give  work 
to  self-supporting  students 
and  work  is,  as  a rule, 
plentiful.  This  fact  must 
appeal  to  many  students. 
It  has  ten  hotels,  two 
steamer  lines,  two  hospit- 
als, two  infirmaries,  one 
hundred  churches,  a

building,  a Carnegie  Li- 
brary, an  Auditorium , 
four  theatres,  two  daily 
papers,  and  a ball  park 
seating  10,000  people.  It 
has  thirty  miles  of  paved 


streets,  eighty  miles  of 
sewers  and  seventy -three 
miles  of  trolley  lines. 
Among  its  many  fine  pub  - 
lie  buildings,  may  be 
named  the  fine  new  ter- 
minal station,  custom 
house  and  post  office, 
Hotel  Patten,  James 
Building,  City  Hall, 
Hamilton  National  Bank 
Building  and  the  new 
Court  House.  The  city 
has  been  and  still  is  no 
small  factor  in  the  devel- 
opment of  our  nation.

variety  of  industries,  geographical 
location,  climate,  religious  life, 
etc.,  make  Chattanooga  the  ideal 
place  for  an  institution  such  as  is 
now  desired  and  necessary  for  a 
liberal  education. 


Here  the  student  comes  in  vital  touch 
with  the  great  political  and  industrial 
problems  of  the  day.  In  these  respects 
the  University  is  as  favorably  located 
as  are  the  institutions  in  the  larger 
cities  of  the  country.  Thus  history,

O WHERE  you  will 
about  the  City  of 
Chattanooga,  two 
things  will  always 
be  in  plain  view. 

One  is  “Old  Lookout”  and  the 
other  is  the  University  of  Chat- 
tanooga. Situated  upon  the 
highest  eminence  in  a residence 
section,  the  main  college  build- 
ing overlooks  all  the  surround- 
ing territory,  and  is  the  first 
building  seen  from  the  car  win- 
dow by  the  traveller  entering 
the  city.  The  campus  embraces 
almost  the  whole  square  be- 
tween McCallie,  Oak,  Baldwin 
and  Douglas  streets,  and  just 
north,  across  Oak  Street,  an  entire  square,  extending  from  Oak  to  Vine  streets.  Electric  cars  pass 
through  the  campus  every  few  minutes.  Rapid  transit  is  readily  afforded  to  every  section  of  the  city,

and  outlaying  suburbs,  and  students  can  room  and 
board  wherever  they  please  in  the  bounds  of  this  terri- 
tory. Upon  the  campus  are  found  the  main  college 
building,  four  stories  in  height,  containing  the  college 
chapel,  class-rooms  and  literary  society  halls,  the  lab- 
oratory building,  another  four-story  building  devoted 
entirely  to  class-rooms  and  laboratories,  the  president’s 
home,  a splendid  new  structure  just  completed,  and 
the  finest  college  athletic  field  in  the  entire  South — 
“Chamberlain  Field” — fully  equipped  with  commodious 
grand- stand  and  bleachers,  with  a gridiron,  diamond, 
and  running- track.  In  addition  to  these,  three  well- 
cared-for  tennis  courts  have  been  provided  just  out- 
side the  field. 

The  members  of  the  university  faculty  are  men 
and  women  of  scholarship  and  attainments,  having 
been  trained  in  the  best  universities  of  America  and 
Europe.  By  far  the  greater  part  of  the  instruction, 
both  in  the  elementary  and  advanced  subject,  is  given 
by  professors,  and  not  by  assistants  and  tutors.  The 
student,  on  entering,  comes  at  once  into  direct  per- 
sonal touch  with  the  best  teachers  and  scholars  of  the 
institution.  The  University  insists  upon  thorough 


Main  Building 


work  in  all  its  departments.  The  facilities  for  instruction  in  the  class-room  and 
laboratories  are  of  the  most  approved  character  and  vary  in  accordance  with  the 
subject  and  needs  of  the  students.  The  means  for  laboratory  work  in  the  various 
departments  of  science  are  ample,  and  the  equipment  is  carefully  selected,  all 
the  laboratories  having  been  equipped  with  new  apparatus.  From  year  to  year

They  are  newly  fitted  with  tables,  books,  sinks, 
etc.  Each  student  has  his  separate  desk,  which 
is  provided  with  water,  gas,  chemical  apparatus, 
etc.  Additional  equipment  is  installed  from 
time  to  time. 

The  biological  laboratory  has  accommodations 
for  about  forty  students.  The  laboratory  is  well 
furnished  with  tables,  cases,  sinks,  excellent

tive anatomy,  etc. 

The  psychological  laboratory  on  the  fourth  floor  occupies  rooms  which  are  well  fitted  for  demon- 
stration and  practical  work  in  optics  and  acoustics.  These  rooms  are  also  connected  with  the  neuro- 
logical laboratory.  The  psychological  laboratory  is  well  equipped  with  new  and  standard  apparatus 
for  general  and  special  courses  in  experimental  psychology.

Our  baseball  team  this  year  also  made 
an  enviable  record,  playing  some  of  the 
leading  teams  in  the  South  and  winning 
many  victories.  The  splendid  gymnasium

the  “diamond”  and  “track”  are  also  advan- 
tageously placed  for  spectators  to  see  all  that 
is  taking  place  during  the  games.  Last  year 
our  football  team — “The  Moccasins”  won 
three  games,  tied  two  and  lost  two.  The

HE  students  in  the  department  of  Oratory  present  at  least  one  play  each  year.  The  annual  Shakespearean  play 
given  at  Commencement  being  the  most  important  one  of  the  year.  An  original  farce,  “A  Word  to  the  Wise” 
was  given  in  1908,  Shakespeare’s  “Twelfth  Night”  was  played  on  the  stage  of  the  college  chapel  in  1909,  and 
“As  You  Like  It”  was  presented  on  the  college  campus  this  year.  The  play  was  given  at  night,  the  grassy 
stage  being  illuminated  by  means  of  searchlights  placed  in  the  upper  windows  of  the  college  building. 
Scenes  from  all  these  plays  are  reproduced  here.

NDER  this  head  should  come  the  various  con- 
tests which  serve  to  enliven  the  year’s  work  at 
both  Chattanooga  and  Athens.  Cash  prizes  in 
oratory  are  offered  by  Mr.  John  A.  Patten,  of 
the  Board  of  Trustees  each  year,  and  other 
cash  prizes  in  debate,  by  Mr.  J.  E.  Annis,  also  a member 
of  the  Board.  Contests  are  held  in  both  schools  annually, 
members  of  various  literary  societies  competing.  In  ad- 
dition to  these,  the  contest  for  the  Chattanooga  Savings 
Bank  prize  which  is  offered  to  the  literary  society  present- 
ing the  best  program  during  an  evening  is  a highly  inter- 
esting event. 

The  University  paper,  “The  Echo,”  which  is  pub- 
lished twice  a month  by  the  students  of  the  University, 
affords  another  means  by  which  the  literary  tastes  of  stu- 
dents may  find  cultivation.  It  is  filled  with  matter  per- 
taining to  the  various  activities  of  the  school,  and  affords 
a record  of  college  affairs  which  is  highly  prized  by  alumni 
after  graduation,  as  well  as  being  a matter  of  interest  to 
all  undergraduates.  Each  year  the  various  literary  soci- 
eties take  the  publication  of  a special  issue  in  hand  and 
the  rivalry  in  this  direction  is  intense.

The  University  is  non-sectarian  in  the  fullest  sense  of  the  word.  Its  aim  has  always 
been  to  build  character  upon  the  fundamental  principles  of  the  Christian  religion.  The 
members  of  the  faculty  have  been  appointed  without  regard  to  their  church  affiliations.  Every  effort  is  being  made  to 
surround  the  students  with  religious  influences.  The  moral  tone  of  the  students  is  healthy,  and  the  standard  of  conduct 
high  and  well  maintained.  The  social  life  is  remarkably  free  from  the  usual  objectionable  features.  There  are  no  saloons 
in  the  city.  Through  the  large  Bible  class,  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.,  Y.  W.  C.  A.,  the  Young  Men’s  daily  and  weekly  prayer- 
meeting, and  other  Christian  organizations,  active  and  effective  religious  work  is  carried  on,  and  everything  is  being  done 
to  develop  an  attractive  and  harmonious  social  and  religious  life  in  accordance  with  the  highest  ideals  of  Christian  character.

is  the  one  almost  universally  in  use. 


Through  free  scholarships,  loan  funds,  etc.,  students  may  reduce  their  expenses  by 
the  sum  of  fifty  dollars,  which  is  the  cost  of  tuition.  But  working  one’s  way  through 


This  is  probably  the  only  institution  in  the  South  that  is  so  favorably  located,  on  account  of  its  being  in  one  of  the 
greatest  manufacturing  and  industrial  centers  in  the  South,  for  a student  of  limited,  and  in  fact,  no  means  whatever,  ex- 
cept talent  and  will  to  work.  Upon  investigation  it  has  been  found  that  about  40  per  cent,  of  the  students  earn  part  of 
their  expenses,  and  that  45  per  cent,  earn  all  their  expenses.  In  fact,  some  students  arrive  with  no  money  whatever, 
something  which  we  do  not  encourage,  but  they  are  willing  to  do  anything  and  are  determined  to  face  all  difficulties.  Such 
a class  of  students  never  fail  to  secure  work.  Students  cUar  on  an  average  from  $5.00  to  $6.00  per  week.  The  most  in- 
experienced not  less  than  $4.00,  while  a few  clear  from  $8.00  to  $10.00  per  week.  Booms  are  to  be  had  in  the  University 
building  as  low  as  50  cents  per  week.  This  includes  heat.  If  the  student  is  economical,  $4.00  per  week  will  cover  all 
necessary  expenses.  This  work  does  not  interfere  to  any  extent  with  the  studies  of  the  student  if  he  works  systematically 
and  industriously.  A large  number  of  the  students  deliver  newspapers,  which  work  is  done  before  or  after  recitations  or 
lectures  of  the  day,  and  on  a commission  basis.
